In October 2015, at the age of 42, Williams suffered his first heart attack. Young and in good physical shape, the heart attack came as a shock.\u201cI didn&#8217;t want to tell anyone because it was a scary thing for me,\u201d said\u00a0Williams. \u201cSo, I kept it very quiet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More health issues followed in September of 2021 when he went to the emergency room for what he thought was appendicitis, but later learned was Stage 3 appendiceal cancer, a rare type of cancer of the appendix. While awaiting surgery, Williams suffered a second heart attack in October of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>These compounding health challenges inspired Williams to spread awareness about the health disparities faced by Black men. He founded Heart, Body &amp; Soul in 2022 and launched the Black Man\u2019s Health Festival the same year as the nonprofit&#8217;s\u00a0flagship event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBesides my own health issues, there were friends of mine who were struggling, who had experienced some really tragic diagnoses and were suffering in silence,\u201d said Williams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Christopher Edwards For the third year, Brooklyn nonprofit\u00a0Heart, Body &amp; Soul\u00a0will host the Black Man\u2019s Health Festival providing free screenings, panel discussions and education on health issues facing Black men.
